This
Internet broadcast from Orkney's 5,000 year-old Neolithic chambered cairn
remains unique. There
are three cameras sending images from Maeshowe. The other partner and
co-founder in this project is Victor
Reijs, who has done much work on archaeoastronomy and whose visit
to Orkney in 1996 was the inspiration for the project.

We
would like to thank everyone who has supported this project previously.
The broadcast has only been made possible with the cooperation and assistance
of a number of people and organisations, including Historic Scotland,
David Griffith, Highland Park Distillery as well as Tait Publishing Ltd.
We would particularly like to thank Historic Scotland and staff for their
help and encouragement.
